Tidy the greenhouse
Back garden photos
I took these this morning and as I have to keep deleting some of my photo to put new ones up I am trying out this app with Instagram and movie maker to make a slide show for the blog so far so good .
when you look at the long hedge were I tried to grow under neath it it looks impossible to as it keeps coming further out THE HEDGE UNLESS I TRIM IT EVERY MONTH
in middle if cleaning greenhouse out the white netting hiding my courgette is out side I was afraid I would loose all my fruit with it sitting on shelving and not in the right size put to start with so I used what I had the time
I have not taken photo but the grapevine is doing good it next doors last year I kept pruning it only once and it another source of food for the wildlife as not sure when to harvest them when green or red very small fruit on them they did not take the dead wood away in the winter ,
So I better this year were I can as it though metal fence handy as some of my compost bins are near by so easy to put cuttings into the bins
I will this post here for now happy gardening until next time
have a blessed day

Garden update
Watered all 7 compost bins this morning with rain water not tap water this
one will soon be ready to empty if I remember not to keep feeding it getting very heavy to turn and with this one it an indication it needs to empty
I keep loosing my gardening motivator and I get frustrated with my self every one sowing seeds while I am still trying to get the growing area ready not sure when the church are coming if not I have to see what I can do on my own.
I have been sowing some seeds
The coriander is the first to germinate
so far nothing coming up
i took them out the big jar and placed them on a tea towel and left them in the airing cupboard to dry then their made this two jars full
Now i am not sure what to do with this tree
